[BioC] Does illuminaHumanv3BeadID.db correspond to the Illumina HT-12 chip

Hi,

Thanks for the report. Along with the control probes, we also discard
anything that is poorly annotated on the array (see our website:-
http://www.compbio.group.cam.ac.uk/Resources/Annotation/index.html)

However, on this occasion I think there are more probes missing than I
would expect. I'll have to check the input to the annotation packages
and re-build if necessary.

Regards,

Mark
